Every time i see that paper on a stand it just gives me a feeling of complete disdain. I'm afraid they made their bed all those years ago and have been lying in it ever since. No sympathy for any of them.

My new job is security in probably Britain's best known dept store .
Every morning there's a couple of copies of every newspaper in the staff canteen.
One certain publication is now mysteriously binned early doors ...

Print one final copy with WE LIED, WERE SORRY in massive letters
Cease publication from the day after
String that ignorant **** Mackenzie up by his knackers in the centre of town for 96 hours one for each victim as way of apology
donate their profits to the families of the 96.

I still wouldn't respect them, just think its the least they should do!

I've never read The S*n in my life and never will. Of course, living on the other side of the world means I won't see it in my local New Zealand newsagent, dairy or supermarket, but if it was on the shelf I wouldn't touch it. The collusion with those perpetrating the cover up was shameful. The outrageous lies told in that disgusting edition were horrendous. I still might have been able to forgive them though had they fessed up as soon as it became apparent that "the truth" was a pack of lies. They should have admitted their wrongdoing, and printed the real truth promptly. Refusing to come clean for 28 years means any recent attempts at polishing up their image are much too little, much too late, and that their denial is not just down to the people at the paper in 1989, but to everybody who's worked there since.

The one thing they must do, to have any chance of redeption, is hang Kelvin MacKenzie out to dry. They need to print the truth about Hilllsborough, the truth about how the false information was fed to journalists, and the truth about MacKenzie's role in sensationalising it, and offer a sincere apology to the families of the 96, the supporters of Liverpool Football Club, and to the people of the city as a whole. Maybe, after that, voluntarily not print another issue for the next 28 years.

I still don't think I'd forgive them, but it might show they genuinely regret what they've done.
